SOFIA (Reuters) - Levski Sofia must play their next two European matches at home behind closed doors because of crowd trouble during their Europa League first qualifying round matches against Liechtenstein's FC Vaduz, the club said on Monday.

The disciplinary panel of European soccer's governing body UEFA also fined 26-times Bulgarian champions Levski 40,000 euros ($45,748.00) after racism and violence among fans marred the two matches last month.
